Not your average fairytale. Not your average hero.
Shrek the Musical is stomping its way onto the stage with big laughs, bold vocals, and a whole lot of heart 💚
A grumpy ogre makes a deal to rescue Princess Fiona for Lord Farquaad… but between a chatty Donkey, a magical secret, and feelings he didn’t plan on catching, Shrek learns that being different might just be his greatest strength ✨
📅 March 20–22�📍 Lafon Performing Arts Center�🎟 Tickets on sale March 2
Get ready for a fairytale that’s a little messy… a little magical… and totally ogre-the-top!!!
